Subject: [RFC PATCH] extcon: Fix sleeping in atomic context after connecting
 USB cable

Kernel built with extcon and charger-manager.

After connecting the USB cable sleeping function was called from atomic
context:

The first sleeping function is is_ext_pwr_online()
(drivers/power/charger-manager.c). The atomic context initiating the
flow is set up in extcon_update_state() (drivers/extcon/extcon-class.c).

The extcon_update_state() uses spin locks which are not necessary
because the function is not called from interrupt service routines.
Instead, the extcon_update_state() is called from:
1. Threaded interrupt handlers.
2. Work queues.

Replace the spin lock with mutex and update the documentation of this
function.
